All Wheel Drive (AWD) vehicles:

Tow your All Wheel Drive vehicle with all four wheels on the ground or
with all four wheels off the ground using a vehicle transport trailer. Do
not tow your All Wheel Drive vehicle with the front wheels off
the ground (by using a tow dolly) and the rear wheels on the
ground.
This will cause damage to your AWD system. If you are using a
vehicle transport trailer, follow the instruction specified by the
equipment provider.

Note: If you tow your vehicle with all four wheels on the ground, follow
these instructions:
• Tow only in the forward direction
• Release the parking brake
• Place the transmission shift lever in Neutral (N)
• Turn the key in the ignition to the ACC position (refer to Starting in

the Driving chapter). The ACC position also unlocks the steering
wheel.

• Do not exceed 65 mph (105 km/h)
• Start the engine and allow it to run for five minutes at the beginning

of each day and at each fuel stop.
